Staying home Outfits in Style

Well, here we’re again, another day in the house. So I’ve though about picking some outfits for staying in the house, but that will be also great for going out later this spring.

Because staying at the house the whole time can get a bit (or a lot) boring, specially for who, like my self, is completely alone. So, getting a cute and stylish outfit can definitely cheer up the mood and make the staying home alone a better moment.

• 4 Staying home Outfits in Style:

So let’s start with a perfect-to-be-home outfit: a loungewear set! Nothing like a good loungewear set for staying home in a very comfortable outfit, but in an elegant way. So, take notes; nothing like a black lounge wear set to be very chic and classy at home:

Simple and elegant! But the best is that if you need to go out and run some errands, you can style this black loungewear set with some jewellery, comfy flats or even (why not) a pair of comfy high heels. Since I was just relaxing home during the weekend, I didn’t wear any accessories, but accessories would make this set perfect for going out of the house or even if you need to do any video call:

I mean, how would have ever said that the Spring 2020 main trend would be loungewear? Well, that’s definitely a good time to enjoy this style of clothes! Nothing like being cosy in style at home.

Another option of outfit that goes very well for staying at home is getting a super cute long sleeve top and match it with a pair of lounger wear trousers. I mean, this top will also look great with a pair of jeans or even with some coloured trousers or a skirt. But, it’s also a great option for a more feminine outfit at home and it will be definitely ready to go out very soon!

This loungewear trousers is part of another loungewear set I showed you before here on the blog, on this Femme Luxe Finery review. And since they are pink with the white detail, it was perfect to make this cute top more casual and comfy for staying home.

For a more casual and relaxed look that’s perfect for the warm days, I styled a white T-shirt with a pair of shorts. And since the white t-shirt was a basic t-shirt, I made a little knot by the bottom and styled it with a necklace in different layers + a cool high bun. All together, I created a super casual, fun and cool outfit:

And I must say I just love this Babe T-shirt!

Style Tip: Whenever you have a basic t-shirt and you want to give it a twist, just make a little knot at the bottom of the t-shirt and you will have a totally cool style!

It wouldn’t be a selection of outfits made by myself if there wasn’t even a little dress on it! Of course you can wear a dress at home, but truth be told, I can’t wait to wear this spring green dress out of the house! It’s a light green silky dress that’s spring-perfect! Light in fabric and in colour.

This dress gives me so many spring/summer vibes! It’s perfect for a warm day or night out. My style choice was to wear it with a high bun hairstyle (perfect for the warm/hot summer days) and statement earrings + a red lipstick (because a red lipstick is always a good idea).

For the shoes, this dress works well with high heels for a more fo a dress up look, or also with a pair of flats sandals or ballerinas.

And I must say, how big was this coincidence that I was wearing a green nail polish at the same day of this green dress?! Actually green is a colour I don’t wear that often (nail polish, makeup or clothes), but I really love this dress’ colour and how it looks non my skin. 💚

4 Beginning of the Spring Outfits

The spring is finally just around the corner and if you can’t wait to wear cute spring outfits, here are 4 suggestions to help you transit from winter to spring in a cute and fun way!

For me, the change of the season is a great time to wear long sleeve dresses that are lighter and in prints that say spring get here, please!

So get inspired to plan your next outfits with a touch of spring to cheer up our days!

• Beginning of the Spring: 4 Outfits

My first getting into the spring outfit is this pink leopard dress with long sleeves! The pink gives this leopard print a touch of femininity and also some freshness, that make this long sleeve dress perfect to start your spring days in style! Ruched with a frill hem, it’s fashionable and super girly, just the way I like a dress!

I love how the pink print makes this dress even more feminine, instead of the traditional leopard colours, the perfect way to start a new spring season! And to make this look even more feminine, I styled it with some girly accessories, like a pink headband and a pink lipstick.

Since I can never get tired of a dress, my second choice of spring outfit is this tan coloured day dress, because I can’t wait to get tanned for the summer! 😂 And a long sleeve dress is perfect for this change of season, while it’s not warm yet, but no longer that cold.

A dress like this is perfect for the daily life, you can wear it as a casual outfit, being able to be comfortable at the same time as stylish. It’s a very versatile dress, you can wear it with a pair of high heels, flat shoes or even with a pair of boots for the transitioning outfit.

And to make this outfit more fashionable, I styled it with some jewellery made with edge wood pieces, that make this outfit super cool. And for the hair, I gave it a little touch with a half up do hairstyle, wearing a cute hair accessory to make it more dress up:

To follow the spring mood, I’ve picked this cute pink puff sleeve top in lace, that’s sheer and make it a perfect beginning of the spring piece to start the season in style with a very feminine outfit. I styled it with a pair of white trousers to get that spring vibe of pastel colours, that I love to wear during the sunny days or also to make any cloudy day a better day, and that’s definitely what we need now! Good outfits and good vibes!

Being home a lot lately here in Italy, it doesn’t mean you should be in pyjamas the whole day or wear only loungewear clothes, there are days I just love to dress up and cheer my mood up too. Actually, this is a great advice to have a healthy routine and get dressed as normal everyday, just to keep your vibes higher and you feeling better during these days.

For all the shirt lovers out there, nothing like a polka dot shirt to make your outfit more fun! And this long sleeve shirt in organza definitely brings a special touch to your outfit. You can style it in so many different ways, for example, you can wear it with a pair of trousers or even with a skirt or shorts.

For this outfit, I styled this blue organza shirt with a black leather skirt for a sexy and elegant outfit:

To bring more fun and more fashion into this outfit, I did a little half bun on my hair, that makes this look much cooler. It’s such a cool, easy and quick hairstyle to do during the day to change your look.

3 Night Out Outfits to Rock!

If you’re like me and you love to go out, be it a party, a dinner or a date night, here are 3 night out outfits to inspire you in shining through the night!

There’s no question that a black outfit is the king of the night-out-outfits, and to inspire you in choosing your next outfit, I’ve styled 3 different night out outfits in black for this season. By now, you all know how I love a shinning outfit an it doesn’t matter if it’s with sequins, glitter, metallic fabrics or metallic details, a little shine was never too much.

So let’s get this party started!

• 3 Night Out outfits to inspire you:

Velvet glitter dress: 3 Night Out outfits — Velvet Dress: Femme Luxe Finery | Shoes: Surface to Air | Hair accessory: Moliaba

Let’s start with a little black dress, that’s not plain at all! My first night out outfit is this black velvet dress with a metallic shining touch that makes it a perfect choice as a sparkly dress. It’s a great dress for going out to the club or even for a dinner or date night when you pair it with a cosy coat.

You can check more details of this velvety dress on the photo bellow to see how shiny it actually is (I didn’t add any filter at all on the photo and no shining effect was added, it’s really how the dress shines is person):

Since this dress is more in a tight style to the body, I decided to do a soft makeup with brown shades as for the eyeshadows and a pink lipstick, to create a balance between the sexy dress + a cute makeup. Also the hairstyle I did was on the cute side as well.

This his something I love to do, mix a contrast between sexy + cute to create a different outfit.

If you prefer a long sleeve dress for the cold weather season, here’s a great option: a bodycon dress, but with a high neck + long sleeves with the right amount of shine! This mini dress also has some shinning metallic details that make this a sparkly dress to rock on a night out!

Add a pair of comfortable high heels and you’re ready to party all night long with this dress!

I LOVE dresses, but of course you don’t need a dress to style a night out outfit, you can also do it with a pair of trousers! And since shining clothes were my inspiration for styling these 3 outfits, I’ve picked a pair of sparkle wide leg trousers for this third outfit option for going out:

Well, the wide leg trousers were definitely the highlight of this outfit because they are super shining also in person, I’d say more shinning in person that it looks like in this photo. Therefore, it’s perfect for a special occasion or as a nice dinner outfit, this outfit will guarantee that you’re dressed to impress. 😉

I was in love with this pair of trousers since the first time I tried it, because it’s so shiny that it creates a beautiful effect for your outfit.

Since this pair of trousers were already shinning enough, I styled them with a cropped top in black satin, the perfect touch for an elegant outfit. There was already glitter enough on this bottom part, so the top could be more neutral and basic to create harmony and balance on my outfit.

Lately I’ve been loving crop tops and even the long sleeve tops in a cropped style have been my go to style of tops this fall/winter season! It looks so beautiful and classy when you style a crop top with high waisted trousers or high-waited skirt.

As anything in fashion, there are many different kind of options to explore when styling a night outfit, which is the coolest thing about fashion: we can always play and enjoy many different styles and outfits!

And how do you prefer to style your night out outfits?

Jumpsuits for women: Outfits to inspire you

I always liked how jumpsuits for women looked, all so elegant! But I actually have no idea how, until recently, I didn’t own any long jumpsuits! No idea how that happened, but, well, problem is solved now, since I was really in the mood for some jumpsuits, so I’ve just got 3 of them at once (well, I had to compensate for all those years, right?).

And I must add that I’m LOVING wearing them! I love the elegant vibe the jumpsuits give and I’ve just chosen some models from a website called Femme Luxe and I’m loving them!

So get ready to be inspired with 3 different jumpsuits for women outfits that I worn recently here in Milan:

• Jumpsuits for women: 3 outfits to inspire YOU

The first jumpsuit that I chose was this asymmetric one with a long sleeve, it’s very elegant, but being asymmetric, it definitely has a fashion vibe to it. I went for an elegant outfit, pairing this black jumpsuit with black patent leather high heels and a black and gold belt.

Since this jumpsuit is an one-shoulder jumpsuit, I went for big and bold earrings to match the look I was going for.

Ordering online for the first time in a new website is not knowing how the fabric will turn out to be, right? Happily, I’ve been enjoying all my jumpsuits’ quality, they are all well made, the fabric is soft and it feels just like I was expecting them all to be.

When we think about jumpsuits for women, we have a lot of options and different models to choose from! With long sleeve, sleeveless, strapless, in a solid color or printed, cute, cool or sexy! The options of outfits with jumpsuits are really endless, making it possible to wear a different one whenever you’re in the mood for a different style.

Well, if you’re in the mood for something sexy, this strapless jumpsuit can definitely be a great choice, like I did on my second outfit!

It’s a black sweetheart neck jumpsuit, that feels so comfortable to wear, but it’s kind of sexy at the same time.

To make it a femme fatale outfit, just pair this strapless jumpsuit with high heels and bold accessories. To make it more elegant, I chose this golden belt to dress up my outfit with more elegance. A red lipstick can always help on the sexiness. 😉

The reason why I always choose elegant accessories whenever I’m going for a sexy look is because it will keep my outfit sexy, but elegant at the same time (which is my style), so I always prefer to dress it up to create a balance avoiding being too sexy (which is never a problem, just it’s not my personal style 😉 ).

Of course I went for a little more sexy approach with this outfit, but you can also wear this strapless jumpsuit with ballet flats to make it a little more “dress down“/casual.

Matchy-matchy, take a look on how my heels match my golden belt on this outfit, sometimes, it’s a little detail that can make an outfit even more special:

Black outfits are always appreciated, but some colour is also good, right?

So moving on from the black outfits, I also chose a light peach coloured jumpsuit in a very different style. This jumpsuit is in a light colour and it’s made in a very classy and elegant style with frill sleeves. Making it a great outfit for the day or even for going out, specially now that we’re in the summer:

Here’s my light/cute makeup for this elegant look and my accessories are from Les Georgettes:

Are you in the mood of a jumpsuit too now?

Jumpsuits for women can be a great piece to wear at any time of the year, it goes well in the summer, but it’s also perfect for the fall/winter season, all you have to do is add a layer to it (with a jacket/coat). And you’re ready to go!

One of the advantages of a jumpsuit is that since it’s a “all-in-one” piece, it’s super easy to wear, because you don’t have to match a top + bottom part. So they are also perfect for when you’re in a rush and have no time to match all pieces of an outfit. Easy + stylish, that’s definitely a win-win situation.
